The interim bail of former federal minister Fawad Chaudhry, relating to four cases linked to the events of May 9, has been extended until April 20 by an anti-terrorism court in Lahore on Monday.

Fawad Chaudhry submitted an application for interim bail in four cases connected to the May 9 events at the anti-terrorism court. Accompanied by his wife Hiba Fawad, Chaudhry appeared in the Lahore court.

During the hearing of the bail application, Anti-Terrorism Court Judge Arshad Javed granted interim bail to Chaudhry, preventing the police from arresting him until April 20. The court also requested case records from the police for the next hearing. Chaudhry had applied for bail in cases registered with Gulberg, Naseerabad, and Model Town police stations.
